We meeting at 8am. Move off 8.30am.

 

I thinking of hitting port dickson first by NS highway. Then ride slowly southwards along coastal roads towards Malacca town. We have 5 to 6 hrs of sight seeing & eating along the route before returning home by NShighway.

i'll put a link here later when its ready.

 

..............................

 

lots of 5 star beach resort & condos along the port dickson beach. We'll pop into some of the bigger ones to see see. Good food in malacca. I found the coordinates of the hainanese chicken rice stall in the downloaded malsing map. Plus at least 1 hr ride around Malacca town for exploration & picture taking.

 

It shld be a interesting trip.

 

.............................................

 

(PS: How GPS helps in Touring? I have plotted a route on my GPS using mapsource & waypoints created on the mapsource. I am totally depending on the pre-planned route to guide me on this trip with the auto-routing & auto-prompt function. )

Been reading the thread on GPS receivers. Haven't got one yet...in due time, perhaps. :)

 

Just thought I'd share with you guys some games people play with GPS. Sounds interesting.

 

Geocaching

 

Geodashing

 

Also, some information from Wikipedia on Automotive navigation system, for the newbies like me.

Someday, home will be where my front wheel points.

Those PDA GPS cum hp user who runs out of juice very quickly & dun want to modify their bikes to install a charger can have this solution above.

 

The $22 white casing is a battery pack thing. You can put 4x AA alkaline or 2300mAHr metal hydride rechargeable batteries inside to power your PDA or hp or any electronic gadgets stuff using 5V. A lot of plug-in adaptors are available for swap.

 

The thing can be used to charge your hp or PDA or powering it.

 

As long your gadget can be connected directly to a USB port directly, it'll work with this thing also.

 

If your PDA phone is running on 1750mAHR lithium battery like mine, then by putting 4x 2300mAHR AA rechargeable, theoretically it can last more than 4 times longer.

 

This white thing is also a battery charger. You plug the thing to your laptop's USB port & it will also recharge your rechargeable batteries after 5hrs ( no quick charge) Alternatively, you can buy a AC to USB converter like the one shown in the picture for $16. I normally use that AC to USB converter to directly charge my PDA at office & leave my normal charger at home.

I dun mean to scare you here

But the mounting you used there is the same like one of my friends

He used mounted it on hi bike and had his GPS unit's casing crack like nobody's business:giddy:

 

Best is to avoid bumpy roads as it doesnt have anything to absorb the vibration:goodluck:

I used my handlebar mount twice into Malaysia so far - some bumpy roads, not much highway. No sign of damage yet, so still crossing my fingers it will be OK for some time to come ...

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference

I think JSS using those white color velcro strap made of hard plastic type - very solid and hard to dislodge type. I saw Motorworld also using alot ; they using it to fasten voltmeters to customised alumimium plates - just like they did for my 3-in-1 voltmeter cum temp meter etc.

 

They cut & bend a L-shaped alumium plate, drill hole & bolted it to a nut. On the flat surface, they put the super heavy duty velcro to stick my Voltmeter. Need alot of strength to pull out the voltmeter from that velcro.
